"L
THE MAN OF THE FUTURE.
A Forbidding Prophecy
The man of the future that
mysterious being who will look
back across a dim gulf of time up
on imperfect humanity of the nine
teenth century with just such
kindly and half incredulous scorn
as we now condescend to bestow
upon our club-wielding, ape-like
ancestors will be a toothless,
hairless, slow-limbed animal, inca
pable of extended locomotion.
His feet will have no division be
tween the toes. He will be very
averse to fighting, and will main
tain his position in the foremost
files of time to come solely upon
the strength of one or two convo
lutions of his brain. This may
seem to be poor prophecy; but it
differs from most prophecies in be
ing a more logical deduction from
accomplished faots.
The different parts of the hu
man frame as it exists now have
been evolved or modified by tho
action of the two great principles
that have always regulated the
development of species. Every
organ and every ornament that
man possesses has been acquired
by natural or sexual selection, and
whon cither of these forces is
weakened or removed, or when
the necessity for such organs or
ornaments is no longer sufficient
to counterbalance the loss of the
power employed in their produc
tion, then they commence at once
to disappear. This is the case
with human teeth. The early an
cestors of man were furnished, ;is
the male gorilla is to-day, with
magnificent grinding teeth for
crushing hard fruit, and huge ca
nines for fighting with other males
for tho possession of females. A
trace of this remains in the more
powerful dentition of savage races,
who stand a short distance nearer
to our common ape-like ancestors.
Civilized human beings, on the
other hand, have absolutely no use
for canine teeth, which are there
fore found to be small in propor
tion to the civilization of their
possessors; and for the rest of the
teeth, they arc eminently unsuitcd
for the work they have to perform.
This is sufficiently plain from their
decay, and the artificial means
which have to be employed in or
der to retain them even to ma
turity. The so-called "wisdom
teeth" arc even now being lost.
They arc the last to appear and
the first to go, and even while we
have them they are unemployed.
The rest will probably follow them
two at a time, and their places will
be supplied, no doubt, by a hard
ening of the gums, which cannot
fail t be incomparably more con
venient and suitable to the viands
of life.
Long hair, beard, mustache and
whiskers arc all sexual ornaments
acquired by man to charm and al
lure the opposite sex, just as the
canine teeth were acquired to fight
for a similar purpose. But neither
is sexual selection so powerful
now, nor arc these hairy ornaments
so important as they used to be.
Marriage is no longer settled by
the strength or magnificent hairi
ness of the suitor. "Wealth will
cover the bald head; intellect is
more valued than whiskers, and
the length of rent-roll counterbal
ances the shortness of a beard. A
woman, too, who has but a scant'
supply of that ancient "pride of a
woman" long hair can eke it
out by fraud and art, nor need
she go unwedded on that account.
Noither men nor women, there
fore, who happen to be ill-furnished
with hair are now, as formerly,
handicapped in the race of life,
and unlikely to leave children to
inherit their defects. On tho
other hand, they gain a distinct
advantage at the outset, inasmuch
as no vital force is in their case
wasted in the production of use
less ornaments. There is, more
over, a mysterious law of correla
tion of growth between the hair
and teeth. Throughout the ani
mal world strong and luxuriant
hair is accompanied by regular
and durable teeth; and a hairless
breed of dogs exists which is
equally conspicuous for the ab
sence of its teeth. Hence, it might
have been expected that civiliza
tion would affect the hair as much
as the teeth, and infallibly tend to
suppress.all hirsute adornments as
not being sufficiently necessary to
the welfare of the individual to re
pay the cost of their production.
Experience confirms this view;
for, as the teeth are small, soon
lost, and two of them, at least,
capricious in appearance, so bald
heads in the prime of life, smooth
cheeks and beardless chins among
men, and womon conspicuous for
their absence of natural locks, are
common in civilized countries;
while savage tribes, who have
more lately left, or still remain in,
that state of society in which indi
vidual strength and social orna
ment aroemanded by the princi
ples of natural and sexual selec
tion, have stronger teeth and
retain more of their original wealth
of hair.
With respect to his locomotive
limbs, civilized man has lost some
faculties and is losing others. The
prehensile power of the great
toe, inherited from our ape-like
ancestor, and still obvious in hu
man embryo, is retained in part by
savage races; but of necessity lost
by those human beings who habi
tually inclose their feet in the
boots and shoes of civilized life.
Indeed, the separation of five toes
under such circumstances is no
longer necessary, and will not
permanently survive. Already
the percentage 01 persons who
have two or more of their toes
united throughout their length is
surprisingly large.
In that particular form of
endurance, again, which enables
men to travel long distances on
foot, the savage is, as was to be
expected, immensely superior to
his civilized brjothcr. And in
creased facilities of artificial loco
motion, by rendering the use by
the latter of his lower limbs inorc
and more necessary, will reduce
them in time to comparatively
rudimentary condition. Finally,
the readiness of our ancestors, and
of our savage contemporaries, to
fight with one another is no longer
profitable, but absolutely pernici
ous, in tho struggle for civilized
existence. There is no necessity
nowadays for frequent personal
combats and struggles of life and
DO
death. On tho contrary, a man
who is violontand pugnacious will,
as a general rule, be more often
imprisoned or slain in the prime
of life than his more pacific neigh
bors, and will therefor leave fewer
children to inherit his f'jrhtinir
spirit. Thus the'eonstaut process
of elimination of combative men
will continue, without any com
pensating advantage in the strug
gle for existence arising as hereto
fore from success as a warrior.
The man of the future, therefore,
will not only be toothless, bald
headed and incapable of extended
locomotion with his imperfectly
developed feet, but he will be
particularly averse to engaging in
personal conflict a love of peace
at any price. Nineteenth Century.
The story comes from Washing
ton that a few days ago, when a
1200 cmplo3'e of tho senate died,
Sergeant-at-Arms Bright received
an application for the vacancy.
Col. Bright read the recommenda
tion, and said at ence: "Very
well, you can have tho place."
The applicant was very much
astonished, and asked, "When can
I take hold?" "You can bejrin
to-day," said Col. Bright; "but let
me explain the situation. You
see when St. John was buried it
left his 1,200 place vacant. Tho
next man under him, a very capa
ble one, receiving 900, was pro
moted. A laborer next below
him receiving 720, stepped into
the 000 place, and a man under
him was then lifted a little,
and so on through the whole list,
until the place really left vacant
by the death of Mr. St3bhn is a
place in tho stable to curry horses
at $1 a day; you can have that
and begin work at once." The
applicant withdrew.
The Drawbacks of Life in Mexico.
Mexico is no place for penniless
adventurers. They are a drug in
the local market already. Of
course a man of -money can come
here and make or lose, according
to his luck, foresight, and experi
ence, as in other countries; but I
am speaking of men who propose
to begin on the bottom round of
the ladder and climb to the top
by their wits. Such persons gen
erally fall off altogether instead of
getting up. To -begin with, a
stranger is handicapped by the
language, which he must acquire
before he can amount to much.
Then the thin air makes hard
work harder, and he some day
finds himself breaking down.
Meanwhile he is surrounded with
temptations not only to positive
immoralities, but to all sorts of
self-indulgences, which njake him
a shipshod character. Wages arp
very little higher than for corres
ponding work at home, and living
is much higher and not so good.
A young man cannot get decent
board and lodging shorl of $40 a
month, and overything else in pro
portion. In shorty a man doesn't
want to come to Mexico who can
make a living in the States, and a
man who can't make a living there
certainly cannot here. JVcjc York
Fun.
The Grant county, Or., JVcics
prints a few facts which suggest
an industrial moral. It says:
"Freighters aro already hauling the
wool to The Dalles at 2 or 3 cents
per pound. At The Dalles it
will pay storage, carting and com
mission; the process will be re
peated at Portland and perhaps at
San Francisco. It will pay in
surance, a liberal freight to the
various railways and steamship
companies that transport it. Like
ly it will go to New England, bo
made into clothing, and after re
turning across the continent and
paying a profit to a dozen dealers,
in addition to tho same freight,
etc., as on its first trip, will be sold
to its first owner at about seven
times the price he received for it.
It is evident that a woolen factory
will not pay in Grant county.

A Vrctoria, B. C, special says:
The sealing season on the west
coast of Vancouver Island is fin
ished. It has not been up to the
average of former years, as the
catch will not exceed 2,500 seals.
Prices rule l6w, at from 75 cents
for small skins to 4 for the larg
est. The average being esti
mated at $3 each for the total
catch. A fortnight since, twenty
one Indians were drowned oil the
sealing grounds, in venturing too
far in their canoes. Previous to
this, twenty-one Indians were
drowned from the same cause,
making a total during the season,
of forty-eight lives lost. The
American, schooners had worse
luck than the British fleet. There,
are plenty of seals, but the weath
er was too rough.
SYMPTOMS OF A DISEASED LIVER.
Pain In the right side, under p1cp of
ribs, increasing on pressure; sometimes
tho pain is on the left side; tiic p:itic-il i-s
rarely able to lie on tho left side; some
times the pain is felt under the shoulder
and is sometimes taken for Rheumatism
in the arm. The stomach is affected with
lcs ofnpctitc and sickness; the bowels
in general arc costive, sometimes alter
nating with laxity; the head is troubled
villi pain, accompanied with a dull, heavy
sensation in the laclc part. There is gener
ally a considerable loss of memory, :iccom
pauied Willi a uluful sensation of having
le!t uiidona something which ought to
have Ijocii done. A slight, dry cougli is
sometimes attendant. The patient com
plains of weariness and debility; lie is
easily startled ; his feet arc cold or burn
ing, and lie complains of a prickly sensa
tion of the skin; ids spirits arc low, and,
although he is satisfied lliatcxcrcl42 would
